Suggested Horror

Read my take on some of the best horror films ever made. These are in no discernible order. I don't consider these critic reviews as there are plenty of those to be found, but rather experiences from a horror fan's perspective. Someone who watched the film with moderate to high expectations and walked away satisfied.

These are a collection of films that got the blood pumping. Both old and new, originals and the re-imagined. They are a presentation of horror work you could refer to someone who's interested in the genre and wants to get their feet wet. I hope you enjoy!

Sinister (2012) - Washed-up true-crime writer Ellison Oswalt finds a box of super 8 home movies that suggest the murder he is currently researching is the work of a serial killer whose work dates back to the 1960s.
